I clicked “read later” for a news article. But where can I find “read later” articles?
Hi, thank you for asking. Please view this User Guide for instructions: https://www.ibkrguides.com/ibkrdesktop/read-later.htm
We hope this helps!
Thanks for your reply. The interface window in read-later.htm is different from my tws interface window. I do not have any left panel under the News. Can you clarify?
Hi John, thank you for reaching out. In TWS Mosaic, the News panel is located in the lower right-hand corner of the layout. There are multiple tabs for different news categories. You could switch to Classic TWS to view it in the left hand panel. We hope this helps!
How can I view “read later” in TWS Mosaic? Thanks.
Hello John, thank you for asking. You can right click any security in the watchlist, and then you can search for News and Research. Then, you can access the “Read Later” tab on the left-hand side. Please note that items are automatically deleted from the list after 30 days. We hope this helps!
Is there a way to get real-time news on predefined keywords? For example, I want that every time there’s news with the phrase ‘US Army’, it appears immediately in the news panel. Does such a feature exist?
Hi Roy, thank you for asking. The News panel in TWS allows you to filter news by subject or feed, but not by custom keywords.
To access and configure news filtering:
In Mosaic, click the New Window button in the top-left
Select News and Filtered News
Click the Configure (gear) icon in the upper right corner
Choose Settings
Under General News, select or deselect news services
The available filters are limited to predefined subjects and news feed sources. Custom keyword alerts for real-time news notifications like “US Army” are not available through the current News panel filtering options.
All users receive free news from multiple providers by default without needing to subscribe.
